The victims were aged seven and nine years old, and one of them suffocated to death during the rape.

A 24-year-old man has been sentenced to two terms of life imprisonment for kidnapping and raping two young girls, one of whom was suffocated to death in 2018.

In his plea explanation, Makhubela said that, in March and June 2018, he had accosted two girls in Hazyview, before dragging them to secluded areas and raping them.“In March 2018, Makhubela spotted a group of young girls playing in Nyongane Trust. He dragged the first victim into the bushes and raped her,” NPA spokesperson Monica Nyuswa said.

“Whilst Makhubela was busy raping her, he covered her mouth with his hands to prevent her from screaming, until she stopped breathing.”“Makhubela was arrested in his hideout in Sabie after one of his victim’s lifeless body was found dumped in a ditch near Hazyview,” Nyuswa said.

ANC and EFF differ on which land should be expropriated without compensationThe ANC and EFF remain at loggerheads over which land should be expropriated without compensation, as the second round of public hearings gets under way. While Agricultural output continues to decline for a second year running. This translates in to higher food prices. So already, just talking about EWC is affecting the poorest of the poor. Zimbabwe did not teach you a lesson, you would rather experience the lesson personally. ANC only recently did it take the issue of land seriously. Secondly I don't know why people think black people can't farm. This scare tactic it's not going to work, we want the land now. Zimbabwe is in a mess because of sanctions imposed by Europe and USA. You're lying period
